Get air moving from A to B with this Festo solenoid valve. It has a 5/2 function, so it can handle multiple connections at once. The unit reacts to inputs in a flash – expect it to switch on in 19ms and off in 35ms – meaning it processes signals in no time. Attaching it to your setup is no problem thanks to its regulation G1/4-thread ports. With support for manifold rail and through-hole mounting, this is a flexible workmate that's straightforward to install.

A bistable valve stays in its position until it switches again even if it loses power. A monostable unit like this one returns to its resting position when the power cuts out, automatically closing off airways for easy system shutdown.
